Hey, they are all politicians, I have yet to hear of just ONE that is squeaky clean. I very seldom take sides, they are all tarred with the same brush!


You seldom take sides.


But you sure bend over backwards (or forwards) to take Trump's side in things.

Trump Team Reportedly Threatens Republican Senators: Vote Against Us and ‘Your Head Will Be On a Pike’

With the fight over witnesses just days away in the impeachment trial, President Donald Trump’s team is reportedly warning GOP senators: Cross us at your own peril.
On CBS This Morning Friday, correspondent Nancy Cordes shared reporting from her network which spelled out a harsh threat from the Trump team against Republicans in the upper chamber who defy them.
“A Trump confidant tells CBS News senators have been warned — vote against the president and your head will be on a pike,” Cordes said.
The report comes in advance of the senate fight over witnesses, which is expected to take place after Trump’s attorneys make their case before the senate beginning on Saturday. Moderates such as Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) are all widely thought to be fence-sitters in the upcoming battle.
Watch above, via CBS.

To beat Wally to the punch - Prog Shit. :D


Seriously though, I heard about this. I haven't heard the recording so I don't know for sure if it's him. That said, considering his vindictive nature, it also wouldn't shock me.

Someone like what, who thinks the point of golf is to get holes in one? No, because any golfer worth their game knows that's not the point.


You don't have to tell me that. I believe it may have been pgs who brought that into the discussion, or at least hinted at it.

I think you meant the video that I posted? Here it is:


A correction to my previous post where I wrote that Trump was saying to Parnas to get rid of Yovanovich. Parnas's lawyer doesn't think Trump was telling Parnas directly to get rid of her, but someone else in the room. Which BTW Don Jr. was there also, but he too claims to not know Parnas.

Anyone who thinks that the point of golf is to get all holes in one is a dipstick and in that case has never played seriously.
The object of golf is to get better , the better one gets the harder it gets to improve . Once you reach a certain point only perfection is acceptable.

No, your handicap, for Golf. I assumed you didn't play since you assumed golfers were wimps, you said I was wrong about that.


So, what was your handicap?
He most likely has not played enough organized games to have a handicap ,the same as most casual players . Mostly only serious players and club members have official handicaps .

Sort of , implying, golf is the pursuit of excellence. So yes a hole in one is an excellent shot . Perfection .

N/A I probably played golf three or four time in my life. The last time was about 25 years ago when my 10 year old nephew laughed at me. I don't recall keeping score, but it was probably in the hundreds. :)


There's a lot more to life than golf!

No wonder you think golf is for wimps then, considering :D

After hearing it three times, it definitely sounds like Trump, especially in the infliction of how some words are said.


And so my last statement stands - I'm not surprised.


Yes, as President he can remove any ambassador at any time he wishes, but the circumstances - and the lie told to get rid of her by Parnas in the tape (or likely lie) - just make this whole issue worse for him, not better.

What really puzzles me is that so many people have spent most of the past three years discussing Trump and will likely continue wasting the rest of their lives doing so. Most of us could never understand his world anyway - in short I can think of a hundred other things I'd rather waste my life doing.

Here's a point for you to maybe take in to understand why.


Trump has always been a loudmouth arrogant sob. He's known for it. Before he became President not many outside of certain circles cared though because he was limited TO those circles.


Now, those circles encompass the entire effin world. What he says, what he DOES, affects ALL of us, for good or bad.


And THAT is why people talk about him, discuss him and are either for or against him. Take him out of the political sphere, take him out of the power of the White House, no one will give a shyte again because he won't matter. But now? Now he's got power, he's got say, and he KNOWS it. That power, that say, that sway even, in a man who has no compassion, no empathy, no humanity, no consideration for anything other than himself... is bloody DANGEROUS.


The people that know it, understand it and see it are the ones talking about it in some vain hope more will see it so that he'll be stopped sooner rather than later.


THAT is why.


Sure, you can think of other things to waste your life on, and the rest of us would love to be doing the same, but Trump is enough of a goddamn loose cannon that, realistically, NOT being aware is more dangerous than being aware.

I fully agree with a lot of what you say but for those of us living in Canada, not much is going to change with him or without him. The stock markets might take a dip, employment figures might take a dip. GDP might take a slight dip, but basically most of us will continue living as we always have. What he does/says in some third rate eastern European country doesn't occupy my mind for 2 minutes a month.

You say you agree, and yet totally, obviously, ignored what it was I said. I explained exactly why and yet you come back with "but for those of us living in Canada, not much is going to change with him or without him"?


JFC... talk about bliss.


Sadly, I'm not surprised.
